Repairing & fixing the damage after a flood
If a building has been flooded the road to recovery can be long and stressful. If the right things are done at the right time by the right people, the trauma and impact of flooding can be significantly reduced.
Immediately after the flood
Insurance providers and their agents will probably arrange for a clean up. It is very important at this stage to listen and take note of instructions given by your insurance company.
Clean what they say you can, throw away only what they say you can and employ only who they give you permission to employ.
This period is critical to the rest of the recovery. A thorough evaluation of the damage caused by the flood should be followed quickly by the implementation of a well thought through and properly directed strategy for drying.
Only when the building is dry enough to accommodate the safe repair of the building should any reinstatements be undertaken.
